The Assertive Discipline Framework


This framework provides some of the necessary day to day classroom and campus tools to give substance to the Key Principles, so that daily school routines, applied in a consistent and coherent manner will ensure we reach our vision.
This is predicated on agreed processes, procedures and attitudes outlined below.

Fundamental Rights

  • The right to work effectively
  • The right to learn, be taught and to teach
  • The right to be safe and welcome, both psychologically and physically in the school building

This is best understood when the following basic rules are observed:

Ground Rules for Learning Situations

  • Follow instructions straight away
  • Keep arms, legs, comments and objects to yourself
  • Be positive in your attitude to others and your work

Departmentally specific additions will offer a degree of flexibility to meet circumstances – e.g. in Science, Home Economics and CDT.
Student specific, negotiated ground rules
It must then be understood that there are consequences when these ground rules are not followed.

Consequences of Non-compliance/confrontation

Consequences of Compliance - Rewards and Praise
